When the insurrection first broke. out in Spain, when the resistance of_ the spanish Patriots wakilttit knower in England, the most careful deliberation, the most . energetic, exertion, aott the most attxiou~ were expeated from °those who possessed tits Ma r jesty's confidence at that momentous crisis. Every gflort made by .the various Powers:of Europe. to check the progress of French aggrandisement prior to I hat period, had proved .nugatory and unavail ing. Every coalition. formed fir the purpose of re.- pressing ins hinovations, through want ,of wisdom, or through Ott of energy had piled. ; servelbilktte4levate that Power ;its. exertions were, intended to. humble. The only nation, that dared to• hid defiance to the anus of France, was En - land; Aostli;i, her once powerful antagooist, preci pitated into a fatal coniliet, in opposition to the sett eft her...wisest 'Counsellors, was ruined in the third. ill-concerted coalition. Prussia , was coin ?Hely subjogated by her victorious arms, while' ,ifttssia, intimidated by the prowess of her armies or induced by other considerations toahandon thecause of Europe, seemed afraid to oppose th,t yiews of the Ruler yf France, or : . willing to flintier them, in the hope of being admitted to. *inure his eongnesto and participate in his plunder. 'The world was 1110 di •F;(igtd, as it were..hetwe4n England and France, to w n it spirit of resistance to , her measures, sudden as unexpected, manifested itself in a country which had long heel) cyasidtored The firmest of her tlllies ; the ivio.n kaihruiliii,vo,of her dependents; she applied to this country for assistance before the close of the last. Sotsions of ; ParNment., Ministers .laid no in formation beforn this House at that time; they pierely stated, that Spain had risen to thwart the views of Buonaparte, that another ,straggie (or the erhaocionion of l~ ; }trope might yet tam place, and shortly ,after l'atbarnent adjourned,. But previous to the close Of the Sessions, all it wasjn their power to do to accelerate the views of IVliinsters, in the hope of enabling them etfeCtnally to assist the cause of SP4 4 I, had been done; every guinea they asked, every. man they required, was wanted ; .unanimous in thfir opinions, but one voice was heard ; .they were actuated in their decisions but by one motive. IsTcv e r did any in any country, enter into a contest undertow e auspicious circumstances—with :More flattertik; preaages.of ,oltimaio success. A ge-. perons nation, to alleviate the sufferings and 41i3re the struggles of anothetokingdotn, anxious to burst the shackles of French tyranny, were pro fuse in their Sacrifices. .One wish pervaded the kingdoca--7-une ardent wish to aid the cause of Spain. Standing on the eminence on which Ministers stand, from whence they could see further than others into • fide atthirs id . the Continent, they should have well inferned themselves of the intemal state of Spain, before ,they advanced either men or moneyto assist •• thep in the contest. i'lleirfirst measure should have been, to have sent men to that country capable of ma king a wpm', to which, without Ih:tog:criminal .lyererinhArs., they might have yielded . implicit lief. They shooldhate sent man well versed boil) in civil and military atfairs, at once capable of lead- jog their armies andassisting their cot - 106(.4s ; it was the it duty to Irate sent such lovnitmv (surely the t;otttitry can boast . such), and thus have. taken the most prudent measuies ro avail theinselvei of that wpot,innidy to strip.

There was nothing, in his opinion, in' the ellaratier of the Spanish station, for some time back, tona lity the idea that a sufficient degree of animation existed among them to enable them to shake off the yoke of , Franee.. In. every contest . religion and li berty' have been found the strongest incentives to , strenuous exertiona.. Thegreatest efforts weak pow , crs have made against their most powerful Neigh boors; an the various streggles,recerded in history, have proceeded front thos.e combined causes. When Holland - singly opposed Spain, thet - glow of enthusi asm, which, springing from these catWs, determined - them to conquer or die,aloneenabled hem to triumph. It was oecessary that Ministers should be informed, if the Spaniards were sensible of the miserable state re' which, by a miserably imbecile'Govertiment, they had been reduced, it they were aware or the evils entailed on them by that superstition which has long; been considered as characteristic of that cone try. He did not say it Was, necessary to know that they would subvert their ancient Monarchy; that they would 'completely destroy the whole fabric of their Constitution; but it was necessary to knoW, that they were animated with that glow of enthusiast)) which alone could give a firm determination , to ena ble 'thetn to sescon. all the 'calamine's, neeessaiily attendant on &lel) 4.,Struggle, With unshaken resolu tion. - t'h ey. were thus aniniated, Alt our ef forts to Succour them must leave proved useless.— 'What 'had been the situation et England herself, had she acquiesced in such abuses as thOse which lately pervaded Spain, h.td s it; submitted to ilaise usages which existed in the feudal system, and coentenanced that invidious distinction - of rank, Mich creates that barrier' between' the different (A dens of society, so inutile - 4w the spirit et equaliry !for which our ancestors contended ?

Spain, where our own' eOuntrymed were. engaged,, and all the coast of Spain Wasnacteisible if) us. He next adverted to the condtkt of Ministers respeding : Sir A.

After the close of the campaign in . Portugal, our force, then "UN strong, was a disposable force; why then were our 'troops 'suffered to remain in a slate of inactivity from the Omit of August, the day on which the Convention was concluded, till the tith -of W giber The Spaniards were then i n great want of an army to assist thenr; why then were tin measures taken to send that body of troops with Sir-J.'-Moore to Spain ? On the 13th of 06tober Sir David Baird arrived at Corinne), where he, was ender the necessity of remaining till the 27th (when the Supreme.

'He did not mean to-'say a n y thing against Mr, Frere, but in his opinion a military man ought to hive been sent, who, competent to judge it the whole popniation were united in the cause, it the great bOdy of the people . were willing to be or-. gattiztd, might h a v e transmitted intell igence on • which Ministers might hare been able to act. with some"degree of propriety. He might have correct ly a.certained the extent of their milliAry power, and thus have been competent to judge it there was a necessity 'tor our :wilding sonnet's to that corintry.

The measures they bpd taken, with respeetto the inter nal. regulations. of Spain, as they sere blended with no selfish views, liedoubted not wou'd imet'the ap probation WI the country. The Hoonorable Gen tleinati had spoken much en the propriety of acting with prorriptness- 'and decisinn, yet he .censuring them for being slow. in sending :assistance, complained of their not having int4olej tbent- • selves of many. particulars. which could only be ac qiiited by an investigation, which, front its nature, must necessarily occupy a considerable portion of tune. • The Hon., Gentleanan had statedthathe had been informed by persons, whose opinions, he could : place much confidence in, that there, never was a preSpea'of ultimate success. 1;le thotaglit thS•.`re wars a great probability of success, from the:general im pulse which aliened the different provinees to . rise, and from the brilliant successes which :ItteAcied many of their operations. The refleaion cast by the Ho noitrable Menther, on the.

The Right Hon. Moyer has said, that we ihould , derive our information from the rdport of proper officers; sent for the purpose of ascertaining the temper and disposition, or the, Bpa nish people.- But the Noble I,ord would inform him of a circuotAtance that, in his opiaion, ,was far superior ,to report. The Battle of Bayleit alone, evinced their temper ; 'the circumst a bee of their tug an army ot , :onc: hundred ifeet4inid men .on . : the left bank of the Ebro; was sufiieient demonstration of their deierionked resolution to oppose the enbeny. ,with vigour and perseverance.
